Add header to Infospoke file?

Hello Experts,

Can we add header to the file generated from the Infospoke using BADI. Any suggestions and hints for the code highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi BWer,

BAdi implementation is made for this purpose but upto some extent like small addition of fields or manupulation of data you can do easily but the header requires lot of formating effort.

For your requirement I feel create a Process Chain use the Infospoke for extracting data in a file and after that include a ABAP Process in a Process Chain which will do the formating part like header.

In this case your ABAP code will be very simple and focused.

Hope this helps.

Wondering if we can add the header in the BADI itself. Is that a possibilty?

Many thanks in advance.

You cant simply add anything in BAdi implementation

You can only do the formating of data that's why I suggested you the other approach.

I am totally agreed with Ashish. I think The option of Process chain is simple and efficient way of handling it.

I don't think writing BADI is right way.

Please can you give me a clue on the ABAP program you are talking about.

I really appreciate if you can share the code for me.

Thanks a lot !
